Sama al-Hamad, 6-year-old Syrian girl who lost her left eye in the August 4 cataclysmic explosion, poses for a picture on the roof of her damaged house in Beirut's Mar Mikhael district overlooking the blast site on August 15, 2020. The powerful August 4 explosion that killed 177 people and devastated swathes of the Lebanese capital also left thousands wounded, mostly from flying shards of glass. At least 400 people suffered ocular injuries, more than 50 required surgery, and at least 15 were permanently blinded in one eye, according to data compiled by major hospitals in and around Beirut.
